Hey PIU-Guam Students, here is some news and encouragement for you. . . Interim President to Students (IP to Ss) News. Hey, Students, One of the things that I often tell others about PIU is that we are not only interested in making our students smarter, we want to help them become more Godly. That is not just a slogan. For instance, I'm praying that the upcoming K2 retreat will be a great part of that discipleship process. In my quest to help encourage the PIU student body toward greater devotion to Christ, from time to time, I share articles that I think are particularly helpful. Here is one: https://www.challies.com/reading-classics-together/how-to-avoid-doing-theology-all-wrong/https://www.challies.com/reading-classics-together/how-to-avoid-doing-theology-all-wrong/ Please take time to read it. I'm writing from Orlando Florida. Nino and I are attending the TRACS conference. No, we won't be going to Disney World. A couple of days ago, I was able to visit with Steve (Grandpa Steve) Bradley. He loves PIU and prays for us regularly. In addition to his many years of service to PIBC, and PIU, Grandpa Steve is investing in the lives of students like you. He is not alone. When you go to class, do your homework, and represent PIU out in public, keep in mind that people like Steve Bradley believe in us. Let's make the most of the opportunity that the Lord, and His servants, are giving us in this unique institution.  I just got this from Dave Owen, please pray. .My blood passed the test. Ready to begin the harvest of stem cells You are the best recruiters that we have.  Make sure you take note of and spread the news. http://piu.edu/application-fee-waiver-program If you recruit another student—could even be a family member—and they enroll and complete their FAFSA, you will earn $100. Far more important than $100, you’ll introduce others to the good things about PIU. In a past IP to Ss I shared a reason why you should stay in the dorm, or consider moving into the dorm if you aren’t already living there. Here is another. Living in the dorm enhances student success. You have greater access to the library. It is easier to stop by and see your teachers. You are around others who are involved in studying. You can make use of areas that are conducive to study. Be watching for more reasons you should consider becoming my neighbor. If you are convinced already, talk to Alex Tavarez.   Tuesday October 31 is Reformation Day. This year is the 500th Anniversary ofMartin Luther posting his 95 theses, seen as the start of the Reformation of God's church. We have obtained a 2017 documentary "Luther: The Life and Legacy of the German Reformer." It will be shown in Classroom 1A on Monday October 30 7-9pm. NOTE: The Library will close at 7pm for this event. One thing Librarian, Paul Drake, likes about this documentary is, "It isn't just a history story, but there is a discussion on the end as to its effect on Christians and the church today." Open to all so come and enjoy the film. Light refreshments will be served.
